Everything put into place. Juz add water...
Wanted to make the sand bed deeper..which means I have to buy another bag of sand. Worried I'm gonna have leftover. Anybody with spare bag of unused sand?
Filling up a 150 liter sump is hard work!!! Can't complain....nobody forced me to return back to keeping fishes...
Waiting for water to clear up. Added Sera's Reefclear to start cycling, carbons to clear the cloudyness...
Been itching for a larger tank...juz haven decided where 2 place it...

My filter sock from bubble magus which i tink is 100 micron..well so long as it does the job well..
Finally my nac 7 is being put to work!!! Time to throw away my Primz skimmer..which is leaking n not doing the job well..
My return pump, Eheim 1264, fitted with a quick release coupling. Return pump will go thru the chiller before returning to the main tank. the coupling double as a flow control. Doubt a small 2 feet tank will require a large flow rate..

I use red sea pro but my kh at abt 14!! Like never drop!! I kinda worry..
I use redsea pro for 1.5 yrs now. pretty happy with the results. Previously using tropic marin and the price is a killer. I notice that the redsea pro also performed well but its KH seems went down faster compared to tropic marin given that the tank contents were the same. I am happy with the price, it works and now just add buffer to maintain the KH. Actually my live rocks like redsea pro too. 8)

Been using eheim products since long ago, they can last easily 5 years or more..best part spares are available in most lfs! But sometime i do wonder about de diff in power, does a lower watt means lower rpm of the impeller/needle wheel? Won't that equal 2 a lower flow?

So far the available HOB skimmer are from bubble magus, red sea primz and skimz..other brands not so sure..I used b4 de primz n bubble magus..primz sucks..bubble magus quite good..but I would, like all other reefers, recommend a proper in sump or out sump skimmer if space permits...anyway, bigger is better!! If u wan, take my primz, foc!!!
